    ….and here’s what I think.

    This game is awesome. I think I’m enjoying it as much as 1942. The sniper tanks are fantastic, had many a fun moment dropping shells on peoples heads from miles away as they ran around trying to figure out what was shooting them. Had even more fun having a long range stand off with Beermonster and some other guy in a tank. The unlocks are fun, managed to get the sentry gun and the support machine gun which isn’t as crap as Legit makes out. It can be difficult to hit people on the run with it, but give it chance to settle down in a prone position and it’s suprememly useful as suppresion fire or using 3 shot bursts to pick people off. That map with the monorail track is good, was up there for ages until Madhippy spotted me 🙁 I don’t know exactly what it is, but for some reason the game feels a lot better than BF2, which I never really got into. Anyway, I’ll be playing a lot more of it in the near future 🙂

    The tanks can zoom in on the main gun… Think thats what he is talking about.

    Yeah, its a really good feature of the tanks – love it.

    I wish the hover tank was not quite so wank, however. It’s rally hard to steer and line up those distant shots. The Tiger, however, is brilliant. Looks the part too.

    I don’t know, I do quite like circle strafing / power drift sliding in the tank 🙂

    That will be the same tank that cannot hover over water 👿

    I don’t get this? I love the hover tank. Kicks ass over the Tigar one. Even one on one with a BW I feel quite confident (although this is the same ‘confidence’ that thinks I can drive those little buggies..some XDC people that have hitched a ride with me might disagree!) It’s not as fast as it was in the beta but still allows me time to flank around my target, pepparing it full of some good ol’ fashioned phasar fire.

    Glad you’re enjoying it Deicist. Was good to have you in my squad the other day.
